KS backer here. Recently reset my account after a self inflicted type-9 to sidey incident. Grinding my way back.....

Greetings! Nice name, by the way...I see we have similar tastes in authors.

Personally, I prefer the Viper for bounty hunting. Sure, it's not as beefy as the Cobra, but it has some pretty strong shields, decent maneuverability, and it's the fastest thing out there. Since 1.1 and the change to the shield cells, I decided to ditch the shield cells and run if my shields get lo...

I don't see any immediate in-game benefit for siding with the Alliance (yet), but ideologically I think it's the group I most align with. Instead of a the Imperial caste system, or the Federation heavy-handed governance, the Alliance is more of a "Let our systems rule themselves how they wish, ...

I wonder if it has anything to do with the distribution of players. I know a lot of people made a beeline for Sol as soon as they could, and perhaps the majority of them hung around in Fed controlled space. That would probably only make sense if there was code that affected NPCs as well.

Sold my Freagle, parked my Startwinder, bought a Hauler and have been cruising around scanning everything in sight and knocking out the random 5-15k mission as they become available. Soon I'll trade the hauler for an Adder, kit it out for exploration (and range) and head out into the deep black. All...

I've got two different controllers (Logitech 3D Extreme Pro, CH Pro Throttle). The throttle came with some software "CH Control Manager", and it was fairly easy to set individual hat switches on the throttle to run macros. The software doesn't see the Logitech stick, but I'm fine with that...

Started in LTT 15449, about ~75 LY from Sol if I remember. I'm going to be leaning independent, perhaps a little towards the Alliance, so just about anywhere is good for me.

I've got a CH Pro Throttle, and just recently set up some simple macros for about four energy pip settings I use most frequently. In combat I like being able to throw my pips around without having to hit buttons multiple times. I've contemplated other macros, and seen other people use them for thing...

Beer is my favorite by far. I love trying new ones, but generally over time I go through phases of dark ales & lagers, Scotch ales, and IPA's. I brew my own from time to time too, and my favorite to brew is a clone of a beer called "1554", which is a dark lager based on a recipe from t...

I had run across a Controls Template someone had made in Excel, for Beta 2.04 and downloaded it. I'm using it as a sort of notepad to keep track of things. Putting ED in windowed mode lets me jot them down as I set them in-game. The copying them over won't be so bad, but the setting up of a new piec...
